saturday night march 8, we had the kids in jams and enough time left to read a few stories before bed. emma chose a look and find book, and when georgie was ready for bed, he chose a toddler devotional call "My Great Big God". he chose the page about Jesus returning for those who love him, and have asked him to live in their hearts. we talked about Jesus being in heaven and how he rose up into the clouds, and how he will come back again. we talked about what heaven is like, and i got to hear about things they have been learning in school and sunday school. georgie said he wants jesus to live in his heart. so we prayed. i told him he should ask jesus to forgive him for his sin, the naughty choices he has made, and ask him to live in his heart and be with him always. he prayed in his own words, and was so excited.
we have a candle at church that is lit to celebrate when someone comes to know jesus. on sunday it was lit for the lives changed in Senegal over the last several weeks. but for me, that flame celebrated georgie.
